This invention appertains to new and useful improvements in garmentforms, and more particularly to forms for protecting laundered garments.

The principal object of this invention over my co-pending applicationSerial No. 500,649, filed December 6, 1930, is to provide a garment formhaving means for protecting the collar.

Other important objects and advantages of the invention will be found inthe following specification and claim.

In the drawings Figure 1 represents a top plan view of one form of theinvention.

Fig. 2 represents a top plan view of a second form of the inventionadapted for full length shirts.

Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the third form of the invention.

Fig. 4 represents a top plan View of the fourth form of the invention.

Fig. 5 represents a top plan view of the fifth form of the invention.

Referring to the drawings wherein like numerals designate like parts, itcan be seen in Fig. 1, that the form is constructed of a sheet ofrelatively stiff material, as denoted by numeral 5, and consisting ofthe central section 6 and the wings 77 extending therefrom. The section6 is divided from the wings 7 7 by the scored lines 8, along which thewings are to be folded when the garment has been placed thereon.

Numeral 9 represents indentures in the upper corners of the wings 77 foraccommodating the sleeves of the shirt. It can be seen in Fig. 1, thatthe section 6 is substantially shorter than the wings 7 at one end so asto accommodate the collar strips 10, which is of arcuate shape andconnected to the section 6 by the reduced connector 11.

It can be seen that the shirt is assembled on this form with the strip10 engaging in the collar thereof and with the sleeves 9 disposed overthe indentured portions 9. The wings 77 are now folded inwardly, oneupon the other, and in this manner, the garment is ready for transmittalto its consignee.

Fig. 2 shows a second modification of the Serial No. 500,650.

the invention has the form first folded on the lines 8, after which thetransverse lines 14 are folded, to bring the flap 12 up against the backof the form.

Fig. 3 shows another form of the invention which consists of asubstantially rectangular shaped" sheet 5 having its upper corners cutaway as at 9 to provide sleeve receiving indentures. The upperintermediate portion of the sheet 5 is cut away as at 7 to provide anindenture for receiving the collar strip 10 which is connected by theconnector 11a to the sheet 5 proper.

In this form of the invention, the same is not folded, the shirt beingassembled thereon and buttoned.

Fig. 4 shows another form of the shirt, the same consisting of arelatively narrow section 6a with a collar strip 1011 at its upper endconnected to the upper end of the section 6a by the reduced connector11?). In this form, the strip 10a is inserted into the collar, while thesleeves of the garment are folded behind the section Go.

Fig. 5 shows a form which is substantially like the form shown in Fig.4, excepting that the same is provided with a lower section 66 separatedfrom the section 6a by the scored lines 8. This lower portion of thesection 6?; is to be folded rearwardly of the section 6a with the shirtthereon.

Nhile the foregoing specification sets forth the invention in specificterms, it is to be understood that numerous changes in the shape, sizeand materials may be resorted to without departing from the spirit andscope of the invention as claimed hereinafter.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is A garmentform of the character described comprising a rectangular-shaped sheet ofmaterial, the upper corner portions of which are reduced toprovidesleeve receivin indentures, said sheet bein provided wit an indenture atthe upper intermediate portion of the same, and a. collar form arrangedwithin the last-mentioned indenture and connected to 1116 said sheet. hI ffi testimony w ereo a x m signature.
